light rippling on pond –

a needed bit of sparkle 

on overcast day

JDG

Even in the rain

sunflowers still shine, swaying

wildly in sweeping wind.

JDG

Trees catch falling rain –

a fleeting meeting before

a hurried parting.

JDG

A wee bit of rain,

a rare coolness in the air,

 wilted blooms perk up.

JDG

Even the sky weeps

to see how we humans are

treating Earth’s children.

JDG

The morning after

the big wind, the trees softly

wave a green hello.

JDG

Sky, not wanting to

be outdone by Earth’s spring blooms,

accessorized with pink.

JDG

Even in the midst

of plenty, those birds find things

to squabble about.

JDG

How pitiful can

a poor dog look when he’s told

his sticks stay outside?
